Around the corner,to the left
Working with Hispanics I've picked up a little bit, not enough to converse full sentences, but enough to be polite when needed,and enough to be rude when needed. Funny enough though is Hispanics tend to mistake me for Hispanic. Last weekend while at the flea market I stopped at a booth with cowboy hats and boots,leather goods. Ran by a Hispanic man, he told me "let me know if you have any questions " but in Spanish, lol I only caught a couple words. I said " No habla espanol, no latino, Americanos " he went
lol The Mexican lady that works with me says "Ah David, it's you sombrero, and you brown,for Americanos"
my grandfather was full blood Apache, though I never met him. Apparently its enough to pass as Mexican
I hate to travel to places where I don't speak any of the language, and always aim to pick up the basics, at least, before travelling. When I was younger, I was very self-conscious about my poor French grammar (no doubt a lot worse now). My big breakthrough was getting drunk! I had a fantastic evening, spoke fluently, and everyone understood what I said perfectly it seemed
